In this subsection we review a few facts about the Legendre curve from a complex viewpoint, namely we analyse Weiestrass functions and periods, as \(\lambda \)  varies in \({P}_1({C})-\lbrace 0,1,\infty \rbrace ={C}-\lbrace 0,1\rbrace \) . We shall refer to Silverman's [1]}
and especially Husemoller's [2]} books.
